VLAN
A set of ports on an ethernet switch that are configured by the network manager to be part of a single broadcast domain.
Vlan allows a manager to configure the switch to operate like Several smaller switches.
A manager can use virtual LAN to separate computer according to policies
A manager can create one or more virtual LAN by specifying which computer attached to which virtual LAN
EG:
Each virtual LAN define a broadcast domain which means that when a computer send a broadcast packet ,the packet only delivered to the set of computer in the same VirtualLAN .
Virtual LAN is treated exactly like a separate physical network.
Virtual LAN technology emulate a set of independent physical network
A computer in a given virtual LAN share broadcast and multicast access on a given virtualLAN and does not spread to other virtualLAN ,just like a separate physical network broadcast and multicast send
